    Abstract: Customer edge (CE) to CE device verification checks initiate routes from available CEs as a set of path verification messages, destined for remote CE routes serving a remote VPN. An extended community attribute, included among the attributes of the path verification message, stores the identity of the originating CE router. The path verification message propagates across the network, and transports the identity of the originating CE router because the originator identity is not overwritten by successive routing. Upon receipt by the remote CE, the originator is determinable from the extended community attribute. A further reachability field is also included in the extended community attribute and indicates whether per CE or per prefix is appropriate for the particular route in question. In this manner, CE-CE connectivity checks identify CEs which are reachable from other CEs. Accordingly, such a mechanism allows for route reachability aggregation on a per-CE or per prefix reachability basis.

    Abstract translation: 客户端(CE)到CE设备验证检查从可用的CE启动路由作为一组路径验证消息,目的地是服务于远程VPN的远程CE路由。 包含在路径验证消息的属性之间的扩展团体属性存储始发CE路由器的身份。 路径验证消息通过网络传播,并传输始发CE路由器的身份,因为始发方身份不会被连续路由覆盖。 远程CE收到后,发起者可以从扩展团体属性中确定。 扩展社区属性中还包括另外的可访问性字段,并指示每个CE或每个前缀是否适合所讨论的特定路由。 以这种方式,CE-CE连接检查可以识别可从其他CE接入的CE。 因此,这种机制允许在每个CE或每个前缀可达性的基础上进行路由可达性聚合。

    Abstract: Embodiments are provided for optimized best path selection for optimal route reflection and include configuring, by a cloud-based node, a first cluster of nodes in an autonomous system, and determining whether any paths for a network address prefix are available in the first cluster of nodes. Embodiments also include selecting a best path from one or more paths if the one or more paths are determined to be available in the first cluster for the network address prefix. Embodiments further include advertising the best path to one or more nodes in the first cluster. More specific embodiments include determining, if no paths for the network address prefix are available in the first cluster, another path for the network address prefix is available in a second cluster of nodes of the autonomous system, and selecting the other path as the best path.

    Abstract: A fast reroute (FRR) technique is implemented at the edge of a computer network. In accordance with the technique, if an edge device detects a node or link failure that prevents it from communicating with a neighboring routing domain, the edge device reroutes at least some data packets addressed to that domain to a backup edge device which, in turn, forwards the packets to the neighboring domain. The rerouted packets are designated as being "protected" (i.e., rerouted) data packets before they are forwarded to the backup edge device. To that end, the edge device incorporates an identifier into the rerouted data packets to indicate that the packets are being FRR rerouted. The identifier may be a predetermined value stored at a known location in the rerouted packets' encapsulation headers, such as in their MPLS or IP headers. Upon receiving a data packet containing the identifier, the backup edge device is not permitted to reroute the packet a second time.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a communications distribution process maintains at least two pseudowires through a network such that the pseudowires share a burden of delivering data through the network. The communications distribution process receives feedback data concerning operation of each pseudowire. The communications distribution process utilizes the feedback data to distribute communications to the common destination across each of the pseudowires. Additionally, the communications distribution process utilizes the feedback to establish at least one new pseudowire, in addition to the first pseudowire and the second pseudowire, for transmission of data traffic.
